a part-time job that you can have on the side; if you speak a language fluently, it usually does not require too much of your intellect nor energy (although things can get stressful and tiring at times, and there are some difficult calls that require focus, patience, and composure). I can't imagine someone would want to work full-time for LLS or treat it as their career. No opportunities for growth, for collaboration, for making any connections with co-workers, or even speaking to your supervisor. In fact, you don't have a supervisor. At best you can talk to some AI/ computer. Or create some ridiculous support tickets whenever you need to sneeze...
Svantaggi
Very low pay and practically no benefits. No vacation. You pay for your own internet connection, you have to work on holidays without extra pay, and you have to spend hours/ fill in tons of paperwork if you want to take any, unpaid, time off.

Providing communications help for health care, insurance, beginning of life, end of life, counseling, IT. Among the highest minutes in the industry. Great record keeping, and pay is only 7 days after the close of every month. The annual training as well as recertification is paid events. Offers relative independence, after several audits, if you comply with excellence in customer service, you are pretty much on your own.
Svantaggi
The minute rate is among the lower side among language companies. Find that while you can gain lots of successful advice from the company bulletin board, but offering advice is often better to those in authority.

Fifteen seconds to recover between stressful calls. The health insurance they offer is super expensive for the poorly paid for hours you get. It does not match. Micromanage everything, constant supervised and not a proper guidance after being pointed the errors of the week.
Extreme poorly paid for the higher quality of job that they want. The company charges 3 or 4 dollars for minute, but an interpreter gets paid 15 an hour before taxes. See the difference?
Days off unpaid always. Not fair. Not even during sickness, grief or personal emergencies.
